Our action plan, published on 24 February this year, shows that we are fully committed to doing more.</p><p>The report on the findings of the first biennial survey on teacher workload, published at the same time, confirms that the Government was right to focus on these three major causes of unnecessary workload in schools.</p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 29/06/2017 16:05:01 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb
